American' defenders of the Philippine islands fought off reinforced
Japanese invad ers with tanka and guns today on two main
battlefronts but the Manila area was bombed intensively.
Although the Philippine capital had been declared an
>0R and undefended city, lere were six air alarms be
fore dusk and enemy squad rons battered heavily a t the ; K>rt
area and nearby military argets. Tokyo already had
broadcast a refusal to recog- ni20 Manila as undefended.
